BANANA COCONUT CRUNCH CAKE

Steps:

• Make cake layer:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter an 8-inch square, 2-inch deep baking pan and line bottom with wax paper. Butter paper and dust with flour, knocking out excess flour.
• On a baking sheet toast coconut in the middle of the oven, stirring once, until golden, about 6 minutes.
• Into a bowl sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a small bowl whisk together eggs, bananas, crème fraîche or sour cream, and vanilla.
• In a bowl of a standing electric mixer beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in flour and egg mixtures alternately, beginning and ending with flour mixture and beating after each addition until batter is smooth, and fold in coconut.
• Turn batter into pan, smoothing top, and bake in middle of oven until a tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool cake in pan on rack 10 minutes. Run a thin knife around edges of pan and invert cake onto rack. Remove wax paper carefully and cool cake completely. Cake layer may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, wrapped in plastic wrap and foil.
• Make syrup:
• In a small saucepan bring water and sugar to a boil over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and simmer 1 minute. Stir in rum and simmer 1 minute. Cool syrup completely. Syrup may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered.
• Make frosting:
• In a bowl with an electric mixer beat together cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Add confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition, and beat in vanilla and pinch salt. In a food processor coarsely grind banana chips and stir into frosting.
• With serrated knife halve cake layer horizontally and with pastry brush dab cut sides with rum syrup, using it all. Spread half of frosting on cut side of bottom layer and arrange top layer, cut side down, on frosting. Spread remaining frosting on top of cake. Cake may be assembled 3 hours ahead and chilled, covered with an overturned bowl or in a cake keeper.

BANANA WALNUT CRUNCH BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray bundt cake pan with cooking spray. You could probably use a regular cake pan if you wanted but I've never tried.
• 2. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of the chopped walnuts, the brown sugar, and the melted butter together and stir well. Pour walnut mixture into the bottom of the pan and spread evenly.
• 3. In a larger bowl, combine cake mix, remaining walnuts, and cinnamon. Add eggs, mashed bananas, water, and oil. Mix 2 minutes or until well blended and pour into pan on top of nut mixture.
• 4. Bake for about an hour. Depending on the size of the bananas, cooking time varies a little. Remove from the pan when a cake tester (or butter knife) comes out clean. Immediately flip pan onto a cooling rack or cookie sheet and scoop out what of the nut mixture didn't come out. Nut mixture is extremely hot so be careful and put it on top of cake. Let cool, slice, and enjoy!

BANANA CRUNCH CAKE

Steps:

• Grease and flour an 8-inch-square pan. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For cake batter: Whisk flours, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, stopping to scrape the bowl between eggs. Mix half the dry ingredients until moistened, then mix in bananas, yogurt and vanilla. Scrape the bowl down again before adding the remaining dry ingredients and nuts and chips (if using). Mix until everything is evenly moistened. Transfer batter to the prepared pan.
• For topping: Combine oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small mixing bowl until well blended. Stir in melted butter until large crumbs form. Stir in chopped nuts. Sprinkle the topping over the batter in the pan.
• Bake until the edges pull away from the pan and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40-45 minutes. Remove cake from the oven and place on a rack to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
